Sf that sat on toasted oak for 3 months at 65%,pulled oak out dilluted to50% added some spices let set for about 4 weeks. Tasteing pretty damn good, but I will let it set for about another 3 months and see the change.
It is what you make it

My last genever. Based on 70% neutral & 30% rye malt wine.
Rye vodka is great too.

Nice. Yours is probably better but have you ever tried the Polish Rye Vodka Sobieski ? I've been converting Stoli drinkers to it.Odin wrote:My last genever. Based on 70% neutral & 30% rye malt wine.

Re: What is Your best right now?
King,
I remember you talking about that! No, never tried it. But I will, because I want a reference for my rye vodka. I like it, but it is my first rye vodka as such and some comparison will be good.
Thanx, Odin.

Re: What is Your best right now?
Been turning out exceptional rum. Started 8 gen ago with a combined red star baker's and distiller's start, been setting on the trub ever since. Real nice after a month of apple wood and tiny amounts of vanilla, cinnamon bark and clove. Hard to keep in stock.

Re: What is Your best right now?
Over the weekend I opened a 1/2 gallon of sweet feed hearts (65%) that has been setting in glass with 5 sticks of heavy charred oak and a 5" stick of cinnamon since 3-11-2011
OMGoodness !
I had forgot about shoving that way to the back of the storage locker in the man cave.
WOW !
Wifey thinks it tastes like Crown Black with a hint of cinnamon
Pretty darn good if I say so myself

I had to runs a bunch to get ahead. Even took several gallons down country to a friends
cabin so I would stay out of it. Threw it under the cabin.
Hey I think I forgot to tell him I was there
